Michael Madsen is breaking his silence on his son's devastating death.
The family confirmed Hudson's passing earlier this week after it was revealed that the late 26-year-old died by apparent suicide from a gunshot wound to the head.
Now the Reservoir Dogs actor is addressing the tragic situation, and is reportedly in "shock" over his son's passing, per The Los Angeles Times. He also shared the contents of his last text message from Hudson, which read "I love you dad."
"I am in shock as my son, whom I just spoke with a few days ago, said he was happy — my last text from him was "I love you dad." the 64-year-old wrote in his statement on Thursday, January 27.
